lol okay that was good.

**MetaMan** · 07-01-2008, 07:36 AM

Martin i am one of those guys who does not change a good thing.

i use icq 5.1 and has always worked great for me, i have never had any problems.

i find with alot of newer programs these days that they are very bulky and have alot of unneeded additions.

http://www.oldversion.com/program.php?n=icq

thats what i suggest anyway.

**Martin** · 07-01-2008, 08:01 AM

Hey Meta, I tried that before(to install the later version from that site) and when I've installed it I get the must update to go forward pop up. It won't let me open Icq without installing the latest version. I was very happy just using 5.1 too.

HMMMMMMMM i have never had that problem :|

like i will get an "update icq" thing once and a while and i just choose "remind me" all the time. i have never had a force re install so im not to sure.

**polish_aristocrat** · 07-01-2008, 08:10 AM

same here, I get a mandatory update request, it is downloading components, but then it crashes during installation:

Error number: 0x80040707
Description: DLL function call crashed: MoveIt.SetGeoParam

setup will now terminate

**NiftyStats Jenna** · 07-01-2008, 08:10 AM

I use qip ... it's great tool

**Iron Fist** · 07-01-2008, 08:18 AM

ICQ sucks balls

**MikesTraffic** · 07-01-2008, 08:18 AM

my pidgin isn't connecting because it is saying i need a newer version. icq is being shitty

**baddog** · 07-01-2008, 08:21 AM

2001b here. What version did you have that made you upgrade?

Pidgin doesn't work so ICQ is being shitty?

I have 5.1 from that site, when you install it and run it the first time it asks you to update but it updates to a newer version of 5.1
At least it did 2 weeks ago when I last reinstalled.

Your third party platforms always work well until they upgrade. I can always tell when Atrium and others do upgrades because I get to thin out my contact list.

I checked google and it looked like some serious error in the registry but the error disappeared on its own after a few times trying..

looks like this is the first time the ICQ contacts are sorted alphabetically

**Hell House Vic** · 07-01-2008, 08:41 AM

Using Adium... I also got the same Bullshit message this morning: "(ICQ) Error: The client version you are using is too old. Please upgrade at http://pidgin.im"

Let's see what happens next.... (lothe)...

**Hell House Vic** · 07-01-2008, 08:56 AM

arg... it's ALL fucked up.

**Jim_Gunn** · 07-01-2008, 09:01 AM

I am still using ICQ 2001b and it works great. :-)

**ChatCash_Rob** · 07-01-2008, 09:10 AM

i got forced to upgrade today as well, it gave me an option to import history though

**tranza** · 07-01-2008, 09:11 AM

For me is normal!

**Spunky** · 07-01-2008, 09:13 AM

Seems to be stable for me

**Tulku** · 07-01-2008, 09:21 AM

right now I'm with pidgin 2.4.1 and it's fine ..

**The Ghost** · 07-01-2008, 10:21 AM

Icq 6 crashes daily for me

**czarina** · 07-01-2008, 10:23 AM

this industry would've been better off with yahoo or AIM

**Deej** · 07-01-2008, 10:23 AM

i just got the new version and I hate it

going back to 5 if i can

**Mullett** · 07-01-2008, 10:24 AM

Pidgin.im site down for anyone?

**baddog** · 07-01-2008, 10:24 AM

Maybe if they had a way to save history without having to do it manually.

Ditto! It says, I won't be able to continue using ICQ if I won't install and download the latest version! Sucks!

I used to love 5.1 version and never wanted to install 6!

**skrog** · 07-01-2008, 11:11 AM

I was forced to upgrade today and lost 2 messages.

**GrouchyAdmin** · 07-01-2008, 11:18 AM

Here's what I did to make mine work.

Code:

[ICQVersion]
Build=0x17AB
ClientId=0x010A
ClientString=ICQ Client
Country=us
Lang=en
Major=0x0006
Minor=0x0000
Other=0x00007535
Point=0x0000

**ThumbLord** · 07-01-2008, 11:46 AM

was out of ICQ the last 7 days had to install an old version 2003b or so and finally it worked again, lost all messages.

**PR_Sebas** · 07-01-2008, 01:54 PM

**shekinah** · 07-01-2008, 03:34 PM

I had 5.1 version before but for some reason, ICQ wants me to upgrade it to 6 and I don't have a choice

**Manowar** · 07-01-2008, 03:38 PM

adium fucked for me right now

**CaveCreek_Russell** · 07-01-2008, 03:47 PM

glad to see I wasn't the only one having trouble, neither pidgin or meebo was working for me this morning.

experiencing the same too!

**brandonstills** · 07-01-2008, 08:06 PM

I installed the ICQ client in Windows in a virtual machine. It fucking sucks. Have to turn off sound because of those obnoxious noises and animated ads all over the place. Can't wait until I can use Adium with it again.

**NETbilling** · 07-01-2008, 09:27 PM

I am using v2.6 of AdiumX now and it is working great so far

**PersianKitty** · 07-01-2008, 09:31 PM

2003b here..

no mandatory upgrade messages and no problems. I'm not upgrading either.
